I question alot. I reason alot, to find answers in my conquest to live my life more fully and more meaningfully.Question my intent, reactions, words, action, inaction, change. Questiong is nothing but reasoning yourself, your thought process, which in turn becomes your choices.It is INTENTIONAL LIVING, meaning making choices for your life based on your greatest values, not on the habits of others. Questioning the choices and choosing with a reason.Which you are solely responsible for.

‘Believe Nothing, No Matter Where You Read It Or Who Has Said It, Not Even If I Said it, Unless It Agrees With Your Own Reason And Your Own Common Sense’ I love this saying by Gautam Buddha. Humble and thought provoking.

To live is a beautiful thing in itself. But as long as we live we must keep learning to live. Learning to grow, to rationalise, to prioritise, to have a perspective, to persist, to be thoughtful, to nurture,to believe,to aim, to rise above, to hold on, to let go, to stand up, to look beyond. Learning to be a sport, to develop a healthy sense of humour, to be aware, to stay fit,to be balanced, to be polite,to be poised, to be patient, to reflect . Learning to be a more newer and more youer with every new dawn.To live in the best possible version of ourselves. I believe each one of us, are the most beautiful, unique being created. We rarely dare to delve within!!!

Dare to be you!! ( upcoming blog).

So is living an art? Yes it is, I say. Art is beautiful, thoughtful , boundless, pleasant, hardwork, personification, thought provoking and the art is artist himself. Your life should be your work of art and no one elses. Doesn’t matter how many flaws it has. The idea is to learn, grow, pick the best, move on to next level.We all are, our own artist in our own unique way painting the picture of our lives. Adding a little more beauty around in our own way. Just make sure the picture you paint is worth every choices you make in life.

Rise and Shine with every better choices, with rational thinking. Own it. Live it. No regrets. More contentment. More happiness. Stay Blessed.Stay Joyful…. mwuahhh😘

(P.S. Reasons don’t really work when its emotions. For me also when its family and friendship .Also dieting doesn’t seem to work, when it’s blogging. I have been hogging mahnnn…for bloggginggg.. So much to thinkkk…even more to eattt.But it’s worth it😊)

…. thoughts travel far..words are secondary.. words if used correctly can create magic. This journey of words hopefully create some magic somewhere . Not only words and mind, this journey is about each one of us who believe in themselves, in posssiblities, who trying to find answers, simplfying things, questioning, reasoning, achieving, developing, wishing, aspiring, inspiring, being a positive change, in having goals, to add a bit more beauty, quality, bring a difference around. Basically, who are actually living and probably like a wake up call to those who are just surviving.

I am no one to teach nor I am here to preach, I am here to reach the hearts through the things close to my heart, in the most real, unadulterated, raw form( no fakeness, no flowery,dreamy language, just straight forward, will try to keep it unbias). An endeavour to create a little more thoughtfulness, mindfulness, a bit more sensitivity (not forgetting practicality), getting a bit more alive, ” To leave the world in better condition in which you and I found” in words of Mr.Baden Powell.
